This is a beautiful area. We hiked up the trail across the road from the campground for some nice views of the valley. There are also some nice hikes at the Umatum site up the river. We saw lots of birds and wildflowers there.

It is a lovely location, and the sites have a feeling of privacy. We loved hearing the train going by!

Nice facilities, setting, paved level sites and easy access. A bit off the beaten path but scenic. No water or dump. Nice day use/boat launch area, though the river moves right along there... Convenient location for our frequent trips between Oregon and BC.
